PETALING JAYA: A photograph tells a thousand words and a viral photograph of the full Cabinet taken Friday (July 19) before a meeting in Putrajaya has set tongues wagging with talk of a possible reshuffle.
The photograph showed the full Cabinet – with no absentees – together with Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad before the scheduled meeting took place in the morning at the Prime Minister’s Office.
“Taking a photograph of a full Cabinet is a traditional practice done right after the formation of the Cabinet and just before a reshuffle or a general election is called,” said an aide to a minister.
However, despite speculation on social media, an aide to the Prime Minister confirmed that there is no reshuffle or general election looming.
“It just so happens that this is the first time since the formation of the Pakatan Harapan Cabinet, there is full attendance by all ministers and no one was absent,” said the aide.
